At BINA Farm Center we believe in a holistic approach to equine learning and teaching life skills. Before riding a horse, we teach the fundamentals of horsemanship which include gaining the horse's trust through patience, presence and being positive.
Our goal is to give our participants a solid foundation; not just for horseback riding, but to influence healthy relationships at home, in school and within their peer groups. All this is accomplished while enjoying their time outside, with a horse!
This is an inclusive program and welcomes children of all abilities and skill levels.
Other daily activities will include arts & crafts and games
